How can @kckschools meet over Zoom to decide to force teachers and students back into school buildings? #hypocrites I expect all future meetings to be in person and open to the public.

Parents in the @bvschools district BULLIED the BOE, and threw TEMPER TANTRUMS until the district gave in and decided to allow HS sports. Thank you for showing that if you bully and throw a big enough temper tantrum that you can get your way.

One of the instructional coaches in my building when a teacher defended teaching X because it was in the state standards: "Just teach the test". Her exact words, and my blood boiled. #StopStandardizedTesting

"To fill classrooms with fantastic teachers and to keep them involved in quality skill development takes money. In essence, in an ideal world, high expectations require high talent and high expenditure of resources." #payteachersmore #PayTeachers #FundPublicSchools
I had to delete FB and Twitter from my phone because even if I'm only on for a few minutes I'm met with such stupidity and I can't take it any longer. Just wear a mask! Stop complaining, the more you complain the longer this takes.
Once again, I am IMPRESSED with KCKPS's decision making! It's like we get fresh blood on the School Board, and Foust leaves, and ALL OF A SUDDEN smart choices are being made!
Sports announcement: @kckschools board votes 5 to 2 to suspend all involvement in KSHSAA fall sports. This will include: football, volleyball, cross country, girls tennis, boys soccer. The vote also suspends band and spirit squad.

Imagine, if you will, a society that held those who educate our children with the same regard as adults who didn't have to grow up and play the game of their childhood.

I don't care if I am a member of your community, or a parent or a teacher in your district, I will show up to fight for safe school re-openings, and to call your district out for not making safe choices. #IStandWithTeachers #OnlyWhenItsSafe #safeschoolreopen
When the schools you fought to open close within a month, I will be here, with all the other teachers, to say "We told you so".

I want to give Maslow’s graphic to anyone who wants F2F classes during a pandemic that is now killing 2K Americans a day. Children can’t even socialize when they feel unsafe, much less learn or create. #MOLeg @MOEducation

Children that should be in 8th grade can be sent to adult prison in Missouri if this passes. No explanation makes this okay. It will disproportionately impact Black communities and their children and Senators know this. This is a disgrace. fox2now.com/news/missouri-se…

It has been requested that I tweet "I love my boyfriend <3"
Those demanding that teachers return to the classroom are speaking from a place of privilege. They have either never been in the classroom, or they no longer work in the classroom. #onlywhenitssafe #safeschoolreopen #teachers

A 7-year-old has died of Covid-19 in Georgia, the youngest victim of the virus in the state, according to data compiled by the state health department. The boy was from Chatham County on Georgia's coast, and had no underlying health conditions. cnn.it/2C9wqW2

It’s amazing to me how many parents don’t seem to love their kids enough to keep them home during a global pandemic. #onlywhenitssafe #safeschoolreopen
we need you because people are quitting because they don’t feel safe.
Looking for a flexible career? Want to make a difference in students' lives? If the answer to both of these questions is yes, KCKPS might have an opportunity for you! #kckpsontrack
